Little things in life that bring you joy

[shadowcat5]

Inspired by the annoy you thread.

Can be smug or nice.

Mine is that I missed the annual work christmas picture this year because I was off sick. I forgot all about it until it got sent around this morning. I am thrilled.

Ok another one which is weird

posting things in the letter box (the red ones outside). It still brings me the same joy it did when I was a kid

I love nothing more than soaking in the bath in the evening.

 

[Pontyslapper]

Driving 'the slow way' to work to enjoy the trees and scenery at different times of the year.

If I did it every day it would get mundane, boring and routine. Plus its now been average speed camera'd the whole length and it varies from 20-60mph so its quite an involved drive in terms of reading the road and taking note of the altering speeds for those flipping cameras. Not quite as enjoyable as previously when you could kind of pooter along.

Having a day off with a long soak in the bath, (preferably new) fresh pjs, a cuppa and a good book and peace to actually read it.

Watching my kids grasp something new that they’ve been working on for a while… my littlest has just mastered multiplication and seeing their face beam with pride brings me a lot of joy.

Getting 30 minutes peace in the car on the way home and Spotify just hits a beautiful bit of shuffle and plays the exact sort of songs you wanted to hear.

My cat. She is the cutest! When she comes to me for attention it makes me feel so wanted.

 

[LittleMy]

The sound of the rain hitting the window when I’m cosy in bed.

Cuddling my little boys.

My cats purring and giving me affectionate head boops.

A hot cup of tea after being out in the cold.

Having time for a cup of tea before anything needs doing in the morning

Hearing or seeing the kids talking/playing together without arguments

When our 4 month old pup does his little trot around the room holding a toy in his mouth

Buying a new book

My cat. She is the cutest! When she comes to me for attention it makes me feel so wanted.

Came here to say cats and I’m a dog person. We have an ex-stray in the family and I’ve spent the evening with her on my lap. Not got to see her much lately as work has been hectic. I honestly think she came with a spiritual purpose.

My partner is out at work, sometimes, until 7pm, I work from home and can choose my hours. One day a week, I finish at 1pm and do some crafting, such as embroidery, diamond painting or colouring in whilst sat on the couch and I don't tell my partner so I get left to do it in peace

What a lovely thread.

The rare opportunity to have a bath in the middle of the day when it’s dark and rainy outside.
